Serial Number Tracking Conforms to BATF's Requirement
Throw away your Gun Book! Elliott's Serial Number Tracking can provide you with purchase and sales history information for a given firearm's serial number, which will save you a lot of time compared to using the traditional Gun Book. With Elliott, there is no need to record the serial number manually as you purchase or sell a firearm. The system will handle it for you, which means that you can track serial numbers upon a BATF's inquiry (BATF Compliant) in seconds.

Any employee can look up the record in a matter of seconds. Imagine the savings of time and effort! In addition to this, Elliott can provide you with a printed report, which conforms to Federal requirements. Imagine saving all the man-hours and effort of keeping up a Gun Book. Imagine the benefit of instant access to sales and purchase records. Stop imagining and get the Elliott Firearm Distribution enhancement today!

Tracking Federal Firearm License Number
You can track the Federal Firearm License Number (FFL Tracking) and expiration date for each customer and ship-to record. FFL# and expiration date are then used to determine whether a customer can purchase a firearm from you or not. They are also automatically recorded in history and ready for BATF's inquiry.

Conform to Local Firearm Legislation
With the recent years' legislation at the state level, it becomes increasingly difficult to conform to various state regulations. Elliott for the Firearm Industry not only conforms to Federal regulations, it will also conform to all the current law at the state level. In addition, it will handle whatever the local government, including city and county, may throw at you in the future.

For instance, let's say you sell handguns. But handguns cannot be legally sold in the state of Massachusetts. In New York you can sell handguns, but only to a dealer with a valid license issued by the state. With the creation of an attribute called 'HANDGUN,' you can handle all of these requirements. The attribute will prevent any handgun from being sold to a dealer in Massachusetts, while at the same time allowing these to be sold in New York, only if the dealer has that same attribute assigned to their customer file.

Efficient Warehouse Management
Elliott has a sophisticated method for warehouse management, including the ability to automatically assign serial numbers on a first-in first-out basis. You can also receive and perform physical count of inventory with a barcode scanner. You can optionally generate barcode labels. With Elliott, you can manage a highly efficient and productive warehouse.

Ideal Mail Order Processing (Sales Desk)
Elliott's Sales Desk feature is designed for companies who take phone orders and is ideal for firearm distributors. With Sales Desk, your salesperson can concentrate on selling to customers instead of working around software limitations. All information that is relevant to the salesperson can be easily accessible, which means the salesperson can be highly productive in answering customer questions on stock availability and pricing, and enter orders.

Newly Received Item Inquiry
This feature will allow your sales force to inform your customers of all the items that were recently received into inventory and, with Elliott's Event Handling Feature, you can have the system automatically send your customers an email notification upon receiving the items they need.

COD Handling with Customer Care
Elliott has a well-designed COD handling feature. The most common problem you may have is COD customers with outstanding credit balances. How does your system apply this credit on the next COD shipment? With Elliott this can be achieved. The system has the intelligence to automatically apply the credit with the customer's next purchase and improve customer overall satisfaction.

Centralized Credit Management
Elliott offers a centralized approval process for releasing sales orders that have been put on hold because the customer has exceeded their credit limit, or customer's account is past due. This is a valuable function for your credit manager.

Shipping Verification
Shipping a wrong firearm/serial number to your customers may mean a lot of headaches. You need Elliott's Shipping Verification to ensure your shipment is a 100% accurate. Not only will this improve your accuracy, it will also speed up your verification process by eliminating your current manual check process.

Interface to Shipping Manifest
Elliott integrates with Starship, a leading shipping manifest software. Not only will it automatically generate shipping labels for your package, it will also update Elliott with the tracking number, shipment date, weight, charges, etc. This enables you to perform on-line tracking, and optionally link to the UPS or FedEx web site directly when customers inquire about the shipping status. A manifest report is also provided to quickly identify potential shipping problems.

E-mail Shipping Notification
With Elliott, you can automatically email shipping notification to your customers with the ship date, item, quantity, and tracking number, etc.
